Changes are afoot at Call of Duty developer Infinity Ward.

Veteran producer Mark Rubin, who had been with the studio since 2005, has left. Meanwhile, Todd Alderman--who worked on the original Call of Duty and the influential 2007 shooter Modern Warfare--has returned to Infinity Ward as its multiplayer project director.

The personnel changes were revealed Monday as part of a Polygon report.

Rubin left Infinity Ward earlier this year, though no further details about his departure or what he might be doing next are available.

The report doesn't name a replacement for Rubin, but does mention that Infinity Ward has made a number of key hires in recent months.

These include former Naughty Dog developers Taylor Kurosaki (narrative desgin lead) and Jacob Minkoff (lead game designer), as well as Michal Drobot (principal rendering engineer), who most recently worked at Ubisoft on Far Cry 4.

Aldermann, along with other former Infinity Ward staffers, later followed West and Zampella to their new studio, Respawn Entertainment, which went on to make Titanfall. He spent two-and-a-half years at Respawn before moving on, ultimately joining League of Legends developer Riot Games in April 2014.
